Members Tishy Posted October 6, 2007 Author Members Share Posted October 6, 2007 As happy that I am that the Yankees are down 2-0 (Did we really think it would be any different), I am getting annoyed that the Red Sox are still tied with the Angels. Let's go Papelbon! I know you can win this one for my beloved Red Sox Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Tishy Posted October 7, 2007 Author Members Share Posted October 7, 2007 Interesting article that I found on redsox.com. Basically stating that Joe Torre's job is on the line and the possibility that they may not resign A-Rod. Report: Boss says Torre's job on line Steinbrenner doubts skipper will be back if Yankees lose By Bryan Hoch / MLB.com NEW YORK -- Joe Torre's Yankees must advance to the American League Championship Series for the longtime manager to keep his job, George Steinbrenner said on Saturday. Speaking in a telephone interview with The Record of Hackensack, N.J., which published his remarks on Sunday, Steinbrenner said that Torre's 12-year run at the helm is at stake as the Yankees face an 0-2 deficit to the Indians in the American League Division Series. "His job is on the line," Steinbrenner told the newspaper. "I think we're paying him a lot of money. He's the highest-paid manager in baseball, so I don't think we'd take him back if we don't win this series." Torre, who has managed the Yankees since 1996, is baseball's highest-paid manager, earning $7 million this year. He is not under contract for the 2008 season, making him the most notable potential free agent in a Yankees group that includes Jorge Posada, Mariano Rivera and perhaps Alex Rodriguez. Steinbrenner told The Record that Torre has "been good for us over the years," as the Yankees have made the playoffs in each of Torre's 12 seasons. But they are facing first-round elimination for the third consecutive season on Sunday. New York is pinning its Game 3 hopes on 45-year-old Roger Clemens, pitching opposite Cleveland's Jake Westbrook as the Indians try for the series sweep at Yankee Stadium. "We certainly need to find out what we're made of," Torre said earlier on Saturday. "We certainly can't take time to feel sorry for ourselves. We've worked too hard to get here and to be one of the select teams in the postseason. We have to make the most of it." The 77-year-old Steinbrenner, who has reserved his words in recent years, instead opting to release most of his commentary through public relations man Howard Rubenstein, agreed with Torre's assessment. "I think that's a good statement," he said. "They'd better show what they're made of." In a wide-ranging interview with The Record, Steinbrenner had choice words for umpire Bruce Froemming, the crew chief who opted to continue play in Friday's Game 2 despite swarms of small winged bugs, called midges, that unnerved rookie closer Joba Chamberlain in the eighth inning as Cleveland tied the game, which eventually ended in 11 innings with the Indians winning, 2-1. "He won't umpire our games anymore," Steinbrenner said of Froemming, who is retiring after this season. Steinbrenner also acknowledged Alex Rodriguez's future, as the probable American League MVP remains hitless in this ALDS and in his last 19 postseason at-bats. "I think we'll re-sign him," Steinbrenner said of A-Rod. "I think he's going to have a good run the rest of the [postseason]. I think he realizes New York is the place to be, the place to play. A lot of this [postseason] is laying on his shoulders, you know, but I think he's up to it." Steinbrenner told the newspaper that he maintains full control over the Yankees, despite published reports of his failing health. "I'm doing all right," Steinbrenner said. "I'm fine." On another note, the D backs and the Rockies will meet in the National League Championship Series. The brooms were out as they both swept their respective series. We have a very strong possibility of two more sweeps today. If the Red Sox win, you will be hearing me scream, no matter where you are in the Continental U.S. and Canada Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrator Toups Posted October 11, 2007 Administrator Share Posted October 11, 2007 Aww....no Red Sox/Yankees ALCS. I really wanted to see that match. Oh well. Now, I want to see a Red Sox/Rockies World Series. Game 1 and 2 of the ALCS is going to be so good. Beckett vs Sabithia and then Schilling vs Carmona. Talk about pitchers duals!

Members Tishy Posted October 11, 2007 Author Members Share Posted October 11, 2007 The ALCS will be very good. I can't wait to see Beckett pitch. I am just waiting for the announcement that Joe Torre has been fired Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Toups Posted October 18, 2007 Administrator Share Posted October 18, 2007 Tish, it's do or die tonight! I really hope Beckett isn't hurt. And Man-Ram's comment, "Who cares...." was awesome. I love when Manny is being Manny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Tishy Posted October 18, 2007 Author Members Share Posted October 18, 2007 Well Manny had a point and I agree with it. It's only baseball and there are a lot more important things going on in the world, like wars, poverty, etc. Anytime Manny speaks he is bound to cause controversay. I wont be watching tonight's game as I dont think I will be up much longer, but go Josh! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
